Discover your Basal Metabolic Rate—the number of calories your body burns at rest. Essential for weight loss or muscle gain planning.
Calories / Day
To maintain your weight with your activity level, you need approx 2,000 calories.
Your Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) is the number of calories your body needs to accomplish its most basic (basal) life-sustaining functions. Even if you stayed in bed all day, your body burns these calories to breathe, pump blood, and maintain body temperature.
We use the Mifflin-St Jeor equation, which is considered the most accurate method for estimating BMR in healthy individuals.
(10 × weight) + (6.25 × height) - (5 × age) + 5
(10 × weight) + (6.25 × height) - (5 × age) - 161
Weight in kg, Height in cm, Age in years.
No. BMR is calories at complete rest. TDEE (Total Daily Energy Expenditure) adds your physical activity calories to your BMR.
Yes, as muscle mass tends to decrease with age, your metabolic rate typically slows down.
